Load Sugg's for 500gr .458 Woodleigh in .458 Win?
Hey Fellas,

I've just gotten my hands on a box of your fine Australian Woodleigh bullets and am looking for some load ideas.

Does Woodleigh have their own loading manual or no? I've been very impressed with the quality of their bullets in the past.

I'll be using the 500gr .458" PP (nearly identical profile to the Swift A-Frame) in my Ruger #1 .458 Win Mag and am hoping this sleek profile will give me a slight edge for long range shooting.

Any load suggestions? I'd like to push it around 2000fps using USA available powders/components.

Thanks!
